The criminal complaint states that police reports indicate Salahadyn was also known as Salah Jones, but at some point changed his name.

According to the criminal complaint, Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra concertmaster Frank Almond was stunned with a Taser in the parking lot of Wisconsin Lutheran College on Jan. 27.

Almond told police he was temporarily incapacitated, and when he regained control of himself he realized the Lipinski Stradivarius violin, made in 1715, was missing.

Also missing were two violin bows valued at $50,000, an iPad, chargers and a cellphone.

Detectives working at the scene recovered small "confetti-sized particles" that investigators said were consistent with those emitted when a Taser weapon is fired. Detectives said the small pieces of paper contain an identifying serial number.

The FBI determined through the serial numbers that the Taser had been purchased by Allah. The complaint says Salhadyn had his friend buy the Taser because he had a concealed carry permit.

Investigators said that a citizen approached an off-duty officer on Feb. 2 stating he knew where the violin was located. The person told the officer that he gave Allah a ride home on Feb. 1, where he stated that a man named Salah had stolen the violin.

A confidential source also told police that Salahadyn spoke to them of stealing high-end art, and "how easily it could be stolen from unsuspecting victims." The source also said that Salahadyn spoke of stealing a Stradivarius violin "because of its potential value and the fact that it could be snatched from the hands of a musician as they walk down the street."

Salahadyn led detectives to a residence in the 400 block of East Smith Street in Bay View late Wednesday night. Investigators found the violin inside of a black suitcase in the attic of the residence.

Both men appeared in court Friday afternoon. Allah's bail was set at $500 cash.

"We are very happy with what happened in court today. I think the commissioner was very fair and looked at the evidence very closely," Allah's defense attorney Paul Ksicinski said.

Salahadyn's bail was set at $10,000 cash, and his lawyer did not comment.

Each of the men faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted of both counts.
